Less messy Genotype Question

[Ducks and Banny hens]

I posted this question along with a couple of others on a different thread, but it is being completely ignored, so I'm concisely asking it here:
What is the genotype of Ruddy? (chicken)

Are you in the USA?? Personally, I've never heard those terms before. I saw the other thread you had. Can you post pics as to what you are talking about?? That may help get things rolling for you.

Well, Ruddy is a color pattern that I've seen on the Feathersite and the Dutch Feathersite occuring in breeds like Javanaise, Seramas, and EEs. The hens kinda look like Brassyback or Quail, but the cocks look wildtype.

That would be what the germans call "wildfarbig", directly translated as: wildcolor.
The german bantam is an example of a breed where this is the main color.

e+ plus unknown melanizers (black enhancers) . Maybe melanotic or charcoal.

Can I ask you another question? Genetically, how is it different from Brassyback? It is different from Brassyback, because Brassy cocks are black with gold saddles, but the hens are just like ruddies. Maybe brassybacks carry 2 melanin enhancers?

Brassy Backs are Black Breasted Red with Recessive Black added.

Brassybacks may have a different melanizer. Eg if ruddies have melanotic, they may have charcoal. Or vice versa.
Or indeed one extra melanizer, maybe both melanotic and charcoal.

Over here in Holland brassy backs are wheaten based but the hens look different (black hackle and tail, wheaten body)
